Spot conflicts before search work slips
Review upcoming search work alongside your calendar and catch crowded days early.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Find event
Finds events in a specified google calendar using text query, time ranges (event start/end, last modification), and event types; ensure `timemin` is not chronologically after `timemax` if both are provided.
Why this helps
Planned index work can collide with existing meetings and commitments, leaving less time than expected.
- Surfaces calendar events that overlap with planned search work.
- Helps make time commitments visible before work begins.
- Reduces last-minute rescheduling and context switching.
